Last two of games Nick Larkey scored 4 and 5 goals against us.

Billy Frampton did really well to hold him to 1.1 whilst also supporting the rest of the defence.
 
Soon to be dual Premiership player, Billy Frampton;

Once as full forward, once as full back.

Framp might be second behind DC as the best player in the past few years we've got with a junk pick that we've turned from barely played to a gun
 
Billy Frampton is what you get if you merge Presti and Wakelin … and then added more speed and height!
 
I thought Fly could have blown a little more wind up Billy's bottom but wanted to point out the importance of the 'system' first. Come on Fly, pretend he's a midfielder!
 
Will be interesting when Reef is back and fit in pre-season next year. Do we fit them both in alongside Moore? I guess it depends on Howe (or maybe not)

To be honest I was never sold on the Reef as defender experiment. I know we needed someone back there but I'd like to see Reef back as a forward when he gets back. Didn't do much wrong in the limited time he had there.

Then in 2026, we'll pull a surprise on GF Day and he'll win one playing in the ruck.

Reef probably fits Howes role better anyway
If he develops well, I view Reef as having Bruzzy like potential to become a bloke who can switch between tall and small and offer a bit of run to go with it.
 
fan favorite anyway but last time he was in a purple patch he was shifted forward/ruck and it messed up his momentum as a genuine full-back

Moore was his main opponent i think then Gunston moved to Howe after Frampton got that in the square goal kicked on him
Howe was on Gunston for that one.

Billy was very good in defence last night.
 
had some great spoils and probably wasn't in the ruck enough to ruin his form which is good

I get the concern, but this is different. When he get shifted around due to necessity in 2023, it was before he'd learnt his defensive role. This time, he's got his defensive role down and isn't going to forget what to do due to 5 minute rotations in the ruck.

i'm talking about 2024 where we saw he was destroying these big name full forwards like Daniher then got shifted around due to injuries and lost that form

I thought he was still a bit of a space cadet as a defender last year. I think it was the space cadet factor that saw him shifted around last year.
